Before you write off some of these other distributions however, let me describe some of them for you.Įlementary OS: I know a lot of Xojo developers use Macs. The performance is incredible even in a virtual machine. Here’s a video of my current issue with performance on Ubuntu with the Unity desktop:īottom line: For developing Xojo on Linux, I’m recommending Linux Mint and/or SolydK. It is a really nice feature for a developer to be able to resize the VM window and have the desktop adjust. This would be if we swapped out monitors and it had a different native resolution. The distro should (ideally) detect this and adjust the display accordingly. Did the distro recognize that the screen was resized. This is a key metric on the performance of the distro. I did measure a couple of key points: what was the time it took to right click and the submenu to show up. It wasn’t going to be very entertaining to watch me say “well, that worked!” over and over. I originally was going to record and publish my development efforts with Xojo on Linux but … Xojo just worked.
